Italian Modernist Dining Chairs by Augusto Savini, "Pamplona" Model for Pozzi

About the Item

Exceptional and iconic set of four "Pamplona" armchairs, designed by Augusto Savini for Pozzi in the late 1960s. A striking blend of elegance, functionality, and innovation, these chairs are among the most sought-after Italian seating designs of the era. Defined by a strong geometric frame with integrated armrests that flow seamlessly into the backrest, the Pamplona chair offers both visual purity and ergonomic comfort. The seats and backrests are padded and upholstered in vibrant red leather, which contrasts beautifully with the black lacquered ash wood frame-a rare and highly collectible color combination. Savini's design reflects the rational elegance of 1960s Italian modernism, and this set-with its sleek silhouette and tactile materials-embodies a timeless aesthetic still coveted today by collectors and interior designers alike. These chairs are in excellent vintage condition, with pristine leather and only one small, well-executed restoration on a leg (visible only under direct light). Currently unique on the market in this colorway.
